Bibury trout and Cotswold Wildlife Park

It was typical English summer weather - low 60s and windy - this morning but we decided to go fishing at a trout farm in Bibury, a short drive away. We got to feed the farm fish before fishing for our dinner. It was a little like picking your lobster out of a tank but the kids had fun. Joce landed a whopper - 4.2 pounds! It was a little strange beating them over the head with a stick but it got the job done. After the boys got to learn how to clean the trout (Elliot wasn’t interested), we picked up a grocery store lunch and made our way to the Cotswold Wildlife Park. We ate lunch at some picnic tables before walking around the wide open zoo like park. Rhinos and zebras and giraffes were the highlights along with a big playground. The sun finally came out and it was a pleasant afternoon. After seeing the whole park, we came home and Joce cooked up the fish for dinner while the kids played games. After a filling dinner, we snuggled up for the 9th Star Wars movie before bed. A good day together.Read more
